Description

No ads, no tracking, no subscriptions. Rook is a popular trick-taking card game using a special deck numbered from 5 to 14 (and maybe 1) in 4 suit colors, plus a Rook card. In this app, the Rook card is a castle chess piece and the cards are designed to be color-blind friendly.
Dealing: Deal passes around table for each hand, to the left. Dealer deals 9 cards to each player, and 5 cards to the widow in the middle of the table.

Bidding: Players bid for the right to name the trump suit. The player to the left of the dealer starts the bidding at 70 (or passes), and bidding proceeds to the left, usually in 5 point increments. A player that passes is out of the bidding for that hand.

Widow, Naming Trump: The high bidder collects the 5 widow cards (which are shown to all players), names a trump suit for the hand, and discards 5 cards from her hand (not shown to the other players). The 5 discards can include point cards which will, depending on your settings, go to either the high bidder or the winner of the last trick.

Tricks: The dealer (or the high bidder, you can change this) leads the first trick. Play proceeds to the left until all 4 players have played one card. Players follow suit unless they are out of that suit (or play the Rook card to win a trick with lots of points). If a player cannot follow suit, any card may be played. If there were no trump cards played on a trick, high card in the lead suit wins the trick. If trump cards were played on the trick, the highest trump card wins the trick. The trick winner pulls in the cards (adds them to his won tricks pile), and leads the next trick. The Rook card is the highest card of the trump suit. The ranking of cards from high to low is Rook-14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5.

Hand results: Both teams count the points from their won tricks piles: Rook card is worth 20; 14 and 10 cards are worth 10 each; 5 cards are worth 5. The other cards count nothing. If the bidding team did not score enough points to cover its bid, its score decreases by the bid amount.
Winning: First team to 300 points (or to be 300 points ahead) wins the game.
A free, ad-supported Rook app is also available on the App Store.

Opinion and suggestions

Rather not but okay on

United States

I love playing Rook card game in person so I love this app. However, I do have a few suggestions: 1) Make a mode that uses the Black duce (in this app it's the color purple)(2) a "little Rook". Make each hand valuable for 200 points with the total game end score being 600. That would be a major advancement for this app(personal opinion) but I still love this app as is.

It’s perfect.

Best card game on the App Store.

Option to not allow leading trump

I really enjoy this game, but would love it even more if it would allow a setting where you can’t open with trump until it’s been broken. Also, the partner’s strategy isn’t the best. He leads with the bird or other high trump even if he hasn’t taken the bid when it would be better to try to save it to take the last trick.

'Great game I love it!

Fun game

Rook was big in the 70’s, it’s still fun. You can tweak it to play the way you want to play. I’ve added the Ones and added a 20 point bounds if you take all the points. Also, you have the played anytime or as the top trump, I choose the later. I find this a good way to unwind, so he can do mindlessly at the dental office, waiting in line at the airport, or waiting for your delayed flight to start boarding.

Great work

I don’t typically write reviews but I just wanted to say I really love this game - the customization ability to play it the way I did 30 years ago makes it nostalgic and the computer players are well balanced. I had the free edition for quite some time but I played it so much I wanted to support the developer because it really is that high quality of a game and work done to make this one of my favorites. Great job and thanks for making such a good and stable game!
